Daybreak sues THJ

Emus have one job.

Don't make money. Im thinkin' it really is this simple.
Having said that, I do think employing some of the devs to make what people clearly want is clever. But as shovel (and others) has said, they appear to just be placeholdering the EQ IP to milk it with little to no input on their part until its cellular death.

i wonder if there's a counter-movement to stop killing games i can donate time or money to. otherwise, the kill more games movement starts here on this forum

Still can't stop the trend toward more active and healthy lifestyles among younger people and that spells the end of the game design, even if you could free the IP. Aerobics, Pilates, and yoga are today's "Everquest."

As players flock to emulated servers like Project 1999 for a "true" classic experience, are developers neglecting the potential for new gameplay mechanics and storytelling methods? Should the industry focus on evolving the MMO genre instead of catering to nostalgia?

Is it truly ethical to emulate classic games like Everquest, considering the original developers no longer support them? When does nostalgia for a bygone era cross the line into exploitation of intellectual property? How do we reconcile the desire to relive our gaming past with the rights of those who created it?

someone ban this bot
